Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Newbury, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehab centers which do take Medicaid, individuals won't have co-payments in most states. For states which do charge co-pays, there are limits to the out-of-pocket expenses for subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If a person in Newbury wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
